Stanford council adopts amended 2023/24 budget ordinance
Summary
The Stanford City Council unanimously approved Ordinance 2023-0511A, adopting amendments to the city's 2023/24 budget after a second reading. The measure passed by unanimous vote and was declared approved during the Aug. 8 council meeting.
The Stanford City Council unanimously approved Ordinance 2023-0511A, the City of Stanford Amended Budget Ordinance for fiscal year 2023/2024, on Aug. 8, 2024.
The ordinance moved forward after a second reading was completed at the start of the meeting and a follow-up motion to adopt was made by Councilman Jerry Wilkinson and seconded by Councilman Jason Hignite. "Motion was made by Councilman Wilkinson (2nd by Councilman Hignite) to pass Ordinance 2023-0511A City of Stanford Amended Budget Ordinance 2023/2024 Fiscal Year. All in favor, motion carried. Ordinance is approved," the minutes record.
Why it matters: Adopting an amended budget formalizes city spending priorities and any changes to appropriations for the current fiscal year; the ordinance text and specific line-item changes were not read into the minutes and are not specified in the record.
Details: The council conducted a formal second reading of the ordinance summary, read by City Clerk Jone Allen earlier in the meeting, and then voted to adopt the measure. The minutes do not list vote tallies by member, but record the motion carried with all in favor.
What comes next: The ordinance is now approved and will be entered into city records. The minutes note that council members may contact City Hall with questions about the audit or budget details.
The council adjourned at 7:18 p.m.
